Night Drive

I get many questions about how I created this shot. It's a long exposure (25 seconds); I had my flash in my hand and after I started the exposure I hit the truck once from the side, then ran in and did another flash from each headlight pointing back at the camera. It took many attempts to get the lighting right and the angles of the headlights correct so that they looked like they were in the right spot. I think it may have been easier to use an on-board camera trigger and put two flashes in the headlight sockets that would automatically fire. But that would have been tricky too.
